[Intro - Just drums and bass - perhaps OOOs] [G#m][E][F#][D#]
[Verse 1] [G#m] I took a page out of your favorite book [E] You sold me lies just by the way you look [F#] Taught me a language that I've never speak Baby, [D#] that ain't for me, that, that ain't for me [G#m] I dug my grave watchin' the way you move [E] You took me higher than I ever flew, ooh [F#] Too many times, gave you a second chance Baby, [D#] I'm just a man, I'm, I'm just a man
[Pre-Chorus] [G#m] No more thinkin' about you late night [E] No more runnin' around with your friends [F#] now Done pickin' up pieces of my [D#] Soul up off the floor, oh, oh
[Chorus] [G#m] I said I would die for you, baby [E] But I can't take this pain no [F#] more I thought I was willin' ………………. But to [D#] night I saved my life when I showed you the door [G#m] I don't wanna lose you, baby [E] But I can't play this gamе no [F#] more I thought it would kill me But to [D#] night I saved my lifе when I showed you the [G#m] door
[Verse 2 - Drums stop] [G#m] You never thought this day would ever come (drums back in) [E] But I looked you in the eyes and pulled the rug [F#] You tried to take away my sanity Baby, [D#] that ain't for me, that, that ain't for me
[Pre-Chorus] Oh [G#m] No more thinkin' about you late night [E] No more runnin' around with your friends [F#] now Done pickin' up pieces of my [D#] Soul up off the floor, oh, oh
[Chorus] [G#m] I said I would die for you, baby [E] But I can't take this pain no [F#] more I thought I was willin' ………………. But to [D#] night I saved my life when I showed you the door [G#m] I don't wanna lose you, baby [E] But I can't play this gamе no [F#] more I thought it would kill me But to [D#] night I saved my lifе when I showed you the [G#m] door
[Post-Chorus] [G#m] When I showed you the door [E] ............ When I showed you the door [F#] ................ But to [D#] night I saved my life
[Chorus - No drums, no guitar - just bass] [G#m] I said I would die for you, baby [E] But I can't take this pain no [F#] more I thought I was willin' ………………. But to [D#] night I saved my life when I showed you the door (drums back in)
[G#m] I don't wanna lose you, baby (I don't wanna lose you, baby) [E] But I can't play this gamе no [F#] more I thought it would kill me But to [D#] night I saved my lifе when I showed you the [G#m] door
[Outro - Down - just bass] [G#m] Mm-mm-mm [E] [F#] Woah, oh, oh [D#]
[Verse 1] [A] You could never know what it's [D/A] like. Your blo [E/A] od like winter freezes [A] just like ice. And there's a [Bm7/A-557777] cold lonely light that [D/A-557775] shines from you. [E] You'll [F#m] wind up like the wreck you [D] hide behind that [A] mask [Bm/A-5xx777] you [A] use. [A] And did you think this fool could [D/A] never win? Well [E/A] look at me, I'm coming [A] back again. I got a [Bm7/A] taste of love in a [D/A] simple [E] way. And if you [F#m] need to know while I'm still [D] standing you just [A] fade [Bm7/A] a [A] way.
[Chorus] Don't you know [Am7] I'm still [Am] standing better than I [Em/G] ever did. Looking like a [Dm7] true survivor, feeling like a [Fmaj7] little kid. [G] [Am7] I'm still [Am] standing after [Em/G] all this time. Picking up the [Dm7] pieces of my life without you [E7] on my mind. I'm still [Am] standing. [Dm7] Yeah [Dm7] Yeah ye [E7] Yeah! I'm still [Am] standing. [Dm7] Yeah [Dm7] Yeah ye [E7] Yeah! [F/E-0-x-10-10-10-x][G/E-0-x-12-12-12-x]
[Verse 2] [A] Once I never could hope to [D/A] win. You [E/A] starting down the road leaving [A] me again. The [Bm7/A] threats you made were meant to [D/A] cut me [E] down. And if our [F#m] love was just a [D] circus you'd be a [A] clown [Bm7/A] by now [A]
[Chorus] Don't you know [Am7] I'm still [Am] standing better than I [Em/G] ever did. Looking like a [Dm7] true survivor, feeling like a [Fmaj7] little kid. [G] [Am7] I'm still [Am] standing after [Em/G] all this time. Picking up the [Dm7] pieces of my life without you [E7] on my mind. I'm still [Am] standing. [Dm7] Yeah [Dm7] Yeah ye [E7] Yeah! I'm still [Am] standing. [Dm7] Yeah [Dm7] Yeah ye [E7] Yeah! [F/E-0-x-10-10-10-x][G/E-0-x-12-12-12-x]
[Chorus/Outro] Don't you know [Am7] I'm still [Am] standing better than I [Em/G] ever did. Looking like a [Dm7] true survivor, feeling like a [Fmaj7] little kid. [G] [Am7] I'm still [Am] standing after [Em/G] all this time. Picking up the [Dm7] pieces of my life without you [E7] on my mind. I'm still [Am] standing. [Dm7] Yeah [Dm7] Yeah ye [E7] Yeah! I'm still [Am] standing. [Dm7] Yeah [Dm7] Yeah ye [E7] Yeah!
